Looking up a job


Your e-timecard administrator determines whether you can access the company job master, which contains all jobs that your company uses. If you don’t see the job(s) that you’re looking for in the Job (user-defined label) dropdown list on the Edit Time Card screen, and the list shows a Search option, then you can look up job(s) from the company master on the screen shown below.
